I'm 15 and hearing impaired and wondering if I can join the Marines after I graduate high school because of my medical condition?

Any disabilities that might impair your performance in action, are not accepted in any of the armed forces.

They have a min standard for hearing, if you can pass their hearing test, you can join, if you can't past their test you won't, Depends on how impaired your hearing is

I'm hearing impaired in both ears but at my recent hearing test my doctor told me that if she didn't see the graph that shows the hearing loss then she would think I would have normal hearing. So I'm guessing I'd need a waiver to join.
